I only ran 3miles on the treadmill today.  I couldn't find my watch and wanted to track my speed so the treadmill was a good option, but to be honest, I was soo tired I couldn't get up this morning to go run at the rec. center.  My 2 year old and 3 year old were up all night last night.  My 3yr. was up through out the whole night experiencing really bad growing pains. At least I think that is what is going on.  He kept grabbing his legs and saying they were hurting.  I feel so bad for him.  It kept he and I up all night .  My 2 yr. is dealing with who knows what.  He keeps me on my toes and yes up in the night.

 I am going for 5 tomorrow, with or without sleep.  Lets hope for sleep!

Life with little kids is tough. One of my sons used to complain of pains in his legs a lot.

I hope you're able to get some sleep. Your kids will interrupt your sleep less when they get older, but that doesn't help you now.

Are those your youngest?

Good run. Hope you got some sleep last night and are ready for a good run today!

Tracy- yes those are my youngest. I have an 11 yr. boy, 9 yr. girl, 7 yr. girl and then the two little crazy boys. Keeps me on my toes, but I love it!

You definitely have your hands full!

(and p.s. I hate running on treadmills too!)
